Congrats on aquiring the plane from Kenny. I knew he had it up for sale off

it. It's in pretty rough shape, and I will probably part it out. It was

Try to make it to the gathering. You'll get plenty of opportunity to
look at any part of many different KRs and can get lots of 1-on-1 time
with many KR builders and pilots. I plan to be there.
While the RR plans are important, I think you'll find much more
information on the web pages published
My son and I have purchased a partially completed KR2, at least we have made

Seems both KR2's and KR2S's are suddenly becoming more popular here in the

Hi, KR folks.
I just joined this list to explore the possibility of building a KR-2S, or some
variant thereof.
It would help if I could visit some builders/flyers locally to see their
projects first hand, and ask some questions.
If you are or know of any KR-2 builders in Utah, please contact me
like I did.

Good Day All
I recently purchased the plans for a KR-1. I am a little tall 6'2" (large
upper body) so I want to do a couple of modifications and need a little
advice. Sorry if these questions have been asked and answered before. I
went through a lot of the old posts, but didn't see ever

way to go consitering it is tested before you put it in and no chance of
